Open

Are UNITY blends organic?

All of our ingredients are sourced sustainably and several of them are organic. Where ingredients are not organic, it was not possible to source organic options for these ingredients. Wherever possible we used organic ingredients in our formulas, because organic farming supports the health of the soil and those who cultivate the crop.

Open

What are the patented ingredients in UNITY blends?

Every ingredient chosen for UNITY blends has been carefully selected as the best possible quality available on the market. Therefore, many ingredients that we use have been patented. Where ingredients are not patented, a better option was available. High absorption, efficacy and optimal results remain our first priority. UNITY blends contain clinically proven ingredients backed by scientific studies. These studies validate the benefits of the ingredients, and how these are linked specifically to each targeted health goal for every individual product.

Open

Do UNITY blends contain fillers or additives?

We do not use unnecessary binders, fillers and preservatives. This ensures that our blends are as pure as possible, providing everything you need – and nothing you don’t. Most mainstream supplements contain excipients that contribute functional or structural properties, such as fillers, binders, and lubricants. These may be detrimental to your health. At UNITY, we believe in full transparency. To this end, all ingredients are listed out fully on our product label.

Open

Where are UNITY blends manufactured?

Our blends are manufactured in the United Kingdom, to very high quality standards. UNITY products are manufactured in a facility that is GMP certified, complies with the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Food Safety Modernisation Act, is Informed-Sport site registered, Halal and Kosher certified, has the organic approval from both DEFRA and The Soil Association for a number of its products and is ISO 9001, 14001, 22000 certified.

What does peer-reviewed mean?

Peer reviewed has be defined as the process of subjecting an author’s scholarly work, research or ideas to the scrutiny of others who are experts in the same field. It’s function is to encourage authors to meet the high standards which are accepted within their discipline as well as to control the dissemination of research data to ensure that unwarranted claims, unacceptable interpretations or personal views are not published without prior expert review. Within the scientific community, peer review has become an essential component of the academic writing process. It helps to ensure that papers published in scientific journals answer meaningful research questions and draw accurate conclusions based on professionally executed experimentation. Submission of low-quality manuscripts has become increasingly prevalent, and peer review acts as a filter to prevent such work from reaching the scientific community. The major advantage of a peer review process is that peer-reviewed articles provide a trusted form of scientific communication.

TECHNOLOGY

What is U ULTRA?

U ULTRA  is a registered trademarked of UNITY that refers to our U ULTRA supplements range. 

UNITY’s U ULTRA products contain the most effective blend of nutrients, vitamins and minerals to target the desired health goals.

UNITY U ULTRA blends are powered by UltraTech™, UNITY’s innovative delivery system, designed for impactful results. UltraTech™  is based around four main principles: 1. Our blends contain the highest concentration of molecules per active ingredient.    2. Each ingredient is in clinically-proven doses, delivering optimal results.  3. Our unique delivery system technology provides the highest bioavailability per ingredient, for maximum results.   4. We use the most effective ingredients available for each specific health goal.

What is UltraTech™?

UltraTech™  is UNITY’s innovative delivery system, designed for impactful results. It is a registered trademark of UNITY that has been carefully constructed by leading scientists, which provides UNITY supplements with maximum efficacy within the body. 

UltraTech™  is based around four main principles: 1. Our blends contain the highest concentration of molecules per active ingredient.  This means that the load of active compounds (the ones that are absorbed and offer a nutritional benefit) in each ingredient is delivered at the optimum effective dosage, in the smallest possible serving size.

2. Each ingredient is in clinically-proven doses, delivering optimal results.  Clinically-proven means that the ingredient has been scientifically proven and validated, at a specific dose, for action within the body. The dosage in which it has been studied is always linked to the supported claims and it is this dosage that is present within the final formula. Taking two UNITY capsules will provide you with the optimum, effective dosage, in the minimum serving size.

3. Our unique delivery system technology provides the highest bioavailability per ingredient, for maximum results.   For each ingredient in our U ULTRA blends we have chosen the technology system that delivers significantly higher concentrations, pointing to an optimal bioavailability with the highest dosage, maximum effectiveness and no side effects.

4. We use the most effective ingredients available for each specific health goal.   Leading scientists from the University of Westminster have identified the exact pathways and mechanisms of action behind every ingredient used in each specific U ULTRA blend. These studies validate the benefits of the ingredients, linked to specific workout and nutritional needs.

Open

What does the term “proprietary blend” mean?

A "proprietary blend" is a term which refers to a combination of ingredients used exclusively by one supplement manufacturer. It means that no other company produces the exact same combination of ingredients within a supplement. UNITY U ULTRA supplements are our proprietary blends.

Open

Why take a multi-ingredient supplement as opposed to a single-ingredient supplement?

Single-ingredient supplements are made to provide you with the benefits of their one ingredient.

UNITY U ULTRA supplements have been formulated as multi-ingredient supplements to target each specific health goal. We have chosen a full-spectrum combination of ingredients for each blend to work synergistically with one another to provide maximum results within the body. All of the ingredients are clinically-proven and most of them are patented ingredients. Where they are not patented, a better option was available.

Open

Are UNITY blends safe for everyone to consume?

The ingredients within UNITY blends have been carefully studied for both their efficacy and safety. At UNITY, we believe that transparency is the best policy. Our labels state the description of the ingredients and their dose, in a clear and transparent way. In addition, our products comply with the sourcing of ingredients and manufacturing of products according to Good Manufacturing Processes, following the UK Food Safety Act and European Commission General Food law regulation that ensures food supplements are safe and properly labelled.

As with any food supplement, adults who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a compromised immune system, should pay special attention to labelling. With any change of diet, always seek advice from a qualified healthcare professional.

Open

Can athletes safely use and benefit from UNITY blends?

UNITY blends have been developed by athletes, for athletes. We have therefore taken an extra step to ensure our Energy Sport Pro blend is certified with Informed Sport.

The Informed Sport programme is an internationally recognised certification providing assurance that products have been tested for a wide range of substances prohibited in sport. Every batch of Energy Sport Pro has been individually tested for banned substances under the Informed Sport programme. Products undergo rigorous testing using ISO 17025 accredited methods to provide the highest level of assurance for athletes.

Open

Are UNITY blends FDA approved?

In the USA there is no federal regulation of supplements, in other words, there is no such thing as FDA "approval" when it comes to dietary supplements and vitamins. 

The FDA treats nutritional supplements as a subset of food products rather than drugs and because supplements are not treated like pharmaceutical drugs, they cannot make claims related to disease. This is the reason why you may see the disclaimer: “These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.” 

To ensure public safety, the FDA has defined Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) that it enforces through inspections, and has the authority to prosecute, seize and remove dangerous products from the marketplace. The FDA can also determine if a product is Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) after reviewing evidence.

UNITY blends are manufactured in the United Kingdom, on a site that follows strict Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and complies with the UK and European Legislative Framework on food supplements that protects consumer interests, and ensures they can have confidence in the products they buy.

How are UNITY U ULTRA blends superior to other supplements on the market?

The UNITY U ULTRA range was developed by elite athletes and formulated by award-winning scientists at the University of Westminster. 

Our proprietary blends use the highest quality, clinically-proven and scientifically-validated ingredients available on the global market today. Many of our ingredients are patented and where ingredients are not patented, a better alternative is used. Research was performed both in vitro and in vivo at the University of Westminster, to further demonstrate efficacy of ingredients. 

U ULTRA blends are formulated and manufactured in the UK to UK Standards. The blends are vegan and gluten-free and unlike many supplements on the market, they contain no added sugar, preservatives, fillers or binders. The blends have been formulated as full-spectrum, highly bioavailable blends that work synergistically within the body.

Energy Sport Pro is certified with Informed Sport. The Informed Sport programme provides assurance that products have been tested for a wide range of substances prohibited in sport.

This dosage is fine tuned based on the clinical trials undertaken per ingredient for maximum efficacy, the daily intake allowance and the safety and the stability of the ingredients. 

Following our transparency statement each product has the % RI (Recommended Intake value) listed on its ingredients list. 

Open

Why are UNITY products in capsule form as opposed to a powder?

When it comes to supplementation, different food supplement delivery formats suit the individual ingredients that they hold. UNITY has chosen a capsule format that offers the best possible delivery system in the body, specific to the ingredients chosen for our formulas. Additionally, the capsules are easy to use due to the fact they are smooth and easy to swallow.

Open

How long will it take to see results?

Quality supplements work when you take them regularly. How soon they start working depends on many factors, including each individual’s body and health status, and there is no one magical moment. Results vary from person to person, but in general our products deliver results within 30-60 days, and most people will notice a difference within a matter of hours or days. This information is supported by the clinical trials with proven efficacy of the ingredients used at specific levels within UNITY blends.

GENERAL KNOWLEDGE ON SUPPLEMENTS

What’s the difference between a food supplement and a dietary supplement?

A food supplement is a food component, nutrient, or non-food compound that is purposefully ingested in addition to a habitual daily diet with the aim of achieving a specific health and/or performance benefit.

Dietary supplements are products ingested in addition to a regular diet in order to obtain the benefits from additional health-promoting nutrients.

There is no significant difference between a food supplement and a dietary supplement. The legal name for these products according to the EU and UK food labelling guidelines is ‘food supplement’ and according to regulatory control, this is the only term that is permitted to be used for this type of product. In the US, according to FDA Guidance and regulations, they are called dietary supplements.

What is a nootropic?

Nootropics are natural or synthetic substance compounds used to enhance cognition and improve mental performance in healthy people. They have gained popularity in today’s highly competitive society and are most often used to boost memory, focus, creativity, intelligence, and motivation.

‘Nootropics’ as a category is extremely broad and encompasses anything from illicit drugs to prescription medications to substances found in everyday foods and drinks. The latter includes caffeine, omega-3 fatty acids, choline, L-Theanine and other amino acids and B-group vitamins as well as a whole host of botanical compounds. Without a doubt, caffeine is the most popular nootropic there is.

In UNITY blends, B-group vitamins and L-Theanine play such a role.

Open

What are adaptogens?

Adaptogens are natural substances, including herbs, that help the body cope with both mental and physical stress. They can have a wide variety of effects, including supporting healthy function of the adrenal glands. Adaptogens are non-toxic plants that are marketed as helping the body resist stressors of all kinds, whether physical, chemical or biological. These herbs and roots have been used for centuries in Chinese and Ayurvedic healing traditions, but they’re having a renaissance today.

One of the most well-known natural adaptogens is ashwagandha, a commonly used herb in Ayurvedic medicine, found in the UNITY Mind formula. 

Open

Are all supplements on the market tested to make sure they're safe and effective?

No. Manufacturers aren't required to test their products for safety and effectiveness. 

UNITY blend ingredients, however, have been selected on the premise of outstanding quality, safety, bioavailability, stability and efficacy, backed by peer-reviewed scientific evidence and clinically-proven results. We have ensured that everything is tested for safety and effectiveness. 

Open

What is the difference between RDA, DV and RI?

Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) is the amount of a certain nutrient you should obtain each day based on your age, gender, and condition (whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding, for example). On a supplement label, you're more likely to see the acronym DV or RI, which stand for Daily Value and Reference Intake respectively. 

DV represents how much of a nutrient the supplement provides in regard to a total daily diet and Reference Intakes (RIs) are benchmarks for the amount of energy and key nutrients that can be consumed on a daily basis in order to maintain a healthy diet. For example, if a Vitamin C supplement is labeled "222% DV/RI," it contains 200mg of Vitamin C per serving, because the DV/RI for Vitamin C is 60 mg per day. 

Sometimes the DV/RI contained in a supplement will be higher than the RDA for certain people. In many cases, there is no DV/RI for a supplement, so the label will reflect that. You may wish to check with your doctor to make sure your supplement doesn't contain too much of any nutrient.

Open

Can I get all the nutrients I need through a healthy and well-balanced diet?

Although it is indeed possible, most nutritional and performance experts would agree there is a nutritional gap between the nutrients consumed in today's diet and the nutrients required for optimal health and training performance.

Whereas hundreds of years ago we ate a diet rich in a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables from nutrient-rich soils, today we tend to have a less varied, more heavily-processed diet from weaker soils. Hence supplementation is in most cases a safe way to ensure your daily intake of nutrients.

Open

Why consume antioxidants and anti-inflammatory ingredients?

An antioxidant is generally defined as any substance that significantly delays or prevents oxidative damage of a target molecule. Physical exercise induces an increase in production of free radicals and other reactive oxygen species. Current evidence indicates that reactive oxygen species are the primary reason for exercise-induced disturbances in muscle redox balance. Severe disturbances in redox balance have been shown to promote oxidative injury and muscle fatigue and thus impair exercise performance. Minimising oxidative stress levels is vital for reducing muscle damage and inflammation. 

Open

What is an ergogenic aid? Is it safe and legal?

In the context of sport, an ergogenic aid can be broadly defined as a technique or substance used for the purpose of enhancing performance. Ergogenic aids have been classified as nutritional, pharmacologic, physiologic, or psychologic and range from use of accepted techniques such as carbohydrate loading to illegal and unsafe approaches such as anabolic-androgenic steroid use. There are a variety of both safe ergogenic aids including amino acids, bee pollen, caffeine, carnitine, creatine, ginseng, glucosamine and protein powders to name a few. 

Nutritional ergogenic aids are aimed primarily at enhancing performance (either by affecting energy metabolism or by an effect on the central nervous system), increasing lean body mass or muscle mass by stimulation of protein synthesis, and reducing body fat levels.

DEVELOPED BY ATHLETES, FORMULATED BY SCIENTISTS

Who are UNITY’s performance experts?

UNITY performance experts have been chosen as they have many years of professional experience and have dealt with all situations and factors affecting their performance.

UNITY elite athletes and co-founders Mathieu Flamini and Mesut Ozil are professional footballers and athletes who have played at the top level and contributed significantly to high performance teams. 

Despite the plethora of supplements available in the market, the UNITY co-founders still struggled to find ones they would trust for themselves. So they decided to develop the products that would meet their standards, and take their performance to the next level. This was the beginning of months of interaction with award-winning scientists and researchers at the University of Westminster. Combining both worlds’ experience and expertise enabled UNITY to come up with the optimum formulations for boosting performance in all aspects of life.

Close

What is the contribution of science in UNITY blends?

UNITY is a science-led brand, with science-backed formulations and a scientific philosophy. We know first-hand how important it is to consume products that are clinically proven and of high nutritional integrity.

Director at Europe’s first Centre for Nutraceuticals at the University of Westminster, Professor M Gulrez Zariwala and his team of scientists worked on in vitro and in vivo research models to demonstrate efficacy of the carefully selected, premium ingredients.

Known for their award-winning innovation in the field of nutritional science and supplementation, UNITY chose to work with Professor M Gulrez Zariwala and team for their reputation for excellence and delivering products that perform.

Professor M Gulrez Zariwala has a long-standing record in research, enterprise and innovation, focusing on assessing the effectiveness of nutritional supplements in improving our diet and helping counter disease.

Professor M Gulrez Zariwala and his team were the best scientific partner to work with UNITY, who aim to offer the best in sports performance.

Why add supplements to my diet?

Proper nutrition with the right level of supportive nutrients can be hard to achieve in today’s world. Far from the rich soils we used to know, land and soils have been compromised from over-fertilisation processes and over-farming which compromises nutrient levels. In order to achieve an optimal diet rich in nutrients we require variety. However, for many, daily consumption of overly processed, less fresh foods has become normalised.  

Those who lead an active lifestyle may sweat nutrients and minerals out of their body, meaning they need to correct that deficiency. For example, some studies suggest that athletes may lose more minerals (iodine, for example) through sweat in an hour of vigorous exercise than through their daily urine output. High levels of sweat during exercise can deplete these mineral levels and result in dehydration and poor performance.  

Further, no matter the level of your training, from elite athletes to people leading a consistently active life, there is always room for a stronger, fitter you. Supplements are used: 

  • to correct or prevent nutrient deficiencies that may impair health or performance 

  • for convenient provision of energy and nutrients around an exercise session

  • to achieve a specific and direct performance benefit in competition 

  • to gain a performance improvement indirectly accrued from outcomes such as allowing more effective training (higher intensity, greater volume), better recovery from training sessions, optimising mass and body composition, or reducing risks of injury and illness.
